The building occupying the high est point or the campus is a most beautiful structure, the style an- arcitecture in keeping with the other buildings on the campus, which were designed by Dr. Parks. The Corin thian columns and arched doors are styles that were chosen by the late President when he first erected a building on the campus that began the tremendous growth that the col lege enjoyed under his guidance. Alumnae from all parts of the state had a part in the building, contributing their share toward it* erection. Miss Mary Brooks, Presi dent of the association, and her com mittees began their work about a year ago and the spirit of co-opera tion that was shown by people who had known Dr. Parks and the great work that he did soon brought the task to completion. The new building is modern in every detail and is the first absolute fire proof building that has ever been erected in Miliedgeville. The building is constructed of the Interlocking Tile an invention of Mr. Russell Bone that has recently been perfected and patented. The tile is stronger and is one of the greatest improvements that has been introduced into the clay industry. McMillan Brick face the new build ing.
